In fact, Trump is cutting pay for his employees. A 33% pay cut is very stiff. Will the Trump campaign be Donald Trump's seventh bankruptcy?

Apparent 33% Pay Cut For Campaign Manager Hints At Money Trouble For Trump
Bill Stepien appears to have taken a $5,000 a month pay cut when he took over the top job, just weeks before Biden outraised Trump by $154 million. ...
